Ultima Thule [English translation]

Ultima Thule

Ultima Thule

But will I find the way to it?

To my elusive Ultima Thule

Ultima Thule

The weather outside is cool,

A marine painter is thrilled,

Earth is a flat disc

Under the dome of rain,1

There are noisy waves in the rooms,

They'll flush away my bed for the night,

But I foreknow that your Noah's ark won't pick us up,

It's cold and windy on these atolls,2

The weather man gave up on that,

The meteorologist started drinking...

The sea is everywhere, there's a little chance I'll wade it through,

But I take hold of my weakness and then fuck her mouth, since

Seagulls are meowing like cat souls,

It's hard without dry land, but we'll survive in this puddle,

It's like the Hollywood movie about Waterworld

That was directed by another boring sodomite,

The land experience is useless here,

There's too much water in the hydrological cycle,

And the city is moored, it's swimming on a long rope,

Somewhere in high seas, the kraken3 is chowing down on an aircraft carrier,

But my goal is further there, in the storm epicenter,

As the eyes of Hyperborea4 are on the face of Lemuria,5

The first killer whales are swimming near the window, so much for occasional precipitation...

On the raft, afloat, on the board, but will I find the way to it? To Ultima Thule...6

I swim deliriously, I drown and stroll on stilts to Ultima Thule...

Through fates and storms, but will I find the way to it, to my elusive Ultima Thule...

1. Oxxxymiron has spent most of his life in two rainy cities - Saint-Petersburg and London.2. Atoll is a ring-shaped coral reef including a coral rim that encircles a lagoon partially or completely.3. The kraken is a legendary cephalopod-like sea monster of giant size that is said to dwell off the coasts of Norway and Greenland.4. In ancient Greek myth and legend Hyperborea was a fabulous realm of eternal spring located in the far north beyond the home of the north wind.5. Lemuria is the name of a "lost land" located either in the Indian or the Pacific Ocean, as postulated by a now-discredited 19th century scientific theory.6. Thule was the place located furthest north, which was mentioned in ancient Greek and Roman literature and cartography. In classical and medieval literature, Ultima Thule (Latin "furthermost Thule") acquired a metaphorical meaning of a far-off land or an unattainable goal.
